-If we work on WO5.4/Leopard and deploy on WO5.3/Tiger, what
issue should we get ready to handle?
You should get ready to handle not doing this :)
Let's ask the other way around. How's our luck developing on WO5.3/
Tiger and deploying WO5.4/Leopard.
I seem to remember from WWDC that WO5.4 is intended to be downward
compatible.
While I maintain that this is a really bad idea, most of the
important things should work fine (the core API's are basically the
same). It's not like API was radically rewritten, but definitely
SOME API did. So you should be prepared that depending on which
particular API's you call, you might find issues. It actually would
be sort of interesting to see a javadoc diff (there used to be a tool
somewhere that would produce javadoc diffs) between 5.3 and 5.4. I
know of a handful of API changes that we ran into when working on
Wonder, but I'm sure there are others.
Like Daryl said, plan to get comfortable with fixing XML component
well-formedness issues -- I think that will be the #1 thing people
run into.
